STAND AGAINST THE BLACK TIDE RISING
Civilization may have crumbled to horror and rabid zombie infection, but the humans who remain will do everything they can to survive—and fight for the chance to raise a new world from the ashes. Everyone who survived the plague lived through the Fall, that terrible autumn when life as they had known it ended in blood and chaos.
THESE ARE THE VOICES OF THE FALL.
Nuclear attack submariners facing sudden and unimaginable crises. Paid hunters on a remote island suddenly cut off from any hope of support. Elite assassins. Never-made-it retirees. Bong-toting former soldiers. There were seven and a half billion stories of pain and suffering, courage, hope, and struggle crying out from history.
HEAR THEIR CRY!
Thirteen new stories set in the world of John Ringo’s Black Tide Rising universe by John Ringo, Michael Z. Williamson, Jody Lynn Nye, Robert Buettner, Sarah A. Hoyt, Travis S. Taylor, Dave Freer, Brendan DuBois, Mike Massa, Griffin Barber, John Birmingham, Rob Hampson, and Michael Gants.

I'm a professional author of... Well, I used to say "science fiction." Then came There Will Be Dragons, which is sf with a distinct fantasy twist. Then came Ghost which is techno-thriller crossed with porn. Then came Princess of Wands, a Christian soccer mom battling demons through the power of God. Who knows what's next? Children's books? (I've actually got that one mapped out. You see, there's this girl who is raised by dolphins... You think I'm joking, don't you?)

"Damn, human beings can be dumb AND greedy." I was a bit disappointed that there were no stories dealing with either Wolf Squadron or any of the main character, though they (Seawolf, Shewolf, Walker) are mentioned in several of the tales.
Overall a good read. If you're a fan of the series, as I am, you do need to read the book. I am awaiting the sequel to to "The Valley of Shadows" to learn more of the fate of Thomas Smith and the Bank of the Americas crew. Now I just have to make it till July 2nd.............................
Thank you all for your stellar contributions to John Ringo's most recent Universe, especially Sarah Hoyt and Jodie Lynn Nye...that being said the rest of them rocked it as well...thanks guys great read, bless your hearts and thank you all for sharing your talent.
These stories just didn't connect with me, not sure why. Maybe i wanted a continuation of the adventures of the characters in the novels as opposed to snapshots of strangers
.
It might also be because i am tired of the "zombie victim" mentality present in many of these stories. In the Black Tide Rising novels, they take the initiative against the zombies, freeing up people and building a community again.
They remember that we are at the top of the food chain for a reason. For me, that's a more fun story to read. It's one big reason i like Ringo's take on the zombie apocalypse. Instead of just hanging on by their teeth or just trying to survive until "help" arrives, Ringo's characters take the offensive, and bring the war to the zombies, freeing up other survivors along the way, and starting to rebuild civilization.
just my two cents
One of the best stories this time around, "It might just matter in the end", by Travis S. Taylor tells the story of the astronauts rescued in Islands of Rage and Hope, but from the NASA side of things. It's pretty good but I think the author got a few details a little bit different than Ringo wrote them.
Worth adding to your copies of the rest of the series.
The quality of the writing cannot be praised highly enough. Ringo had arranged for famous authors, not famous authors and always brilliant authors. The bring us not Zombie stories but stories of people we can engage with caught up in a Zombie Apocalypse.
The locations cover the globe. We have a story in Paris and another at the end of the earth on an island off the coast of New Zealand. Each is a bright gem.
I recommend this volume to lovers of the printed word and those who appriciate a good yarn.
Now that I think about it, I think I'll go read it again.
